Several large financial firms have significant Haskell codebases, plenty of random cryptocurrency startups are Haskell based, some of the Google TPU chips are/were written in Haskell/Clash, Facebook has a big Haskell codebase, Starbucks and Target use it, there are several national security/defense firms extensively using Haskell, etc. etc.

Just because you don't see a bunch of blog posts like "We rewrote our <useless product> in <language du jour>!" doesn't mean it's not being used. In fact, more serious companies tend to lean less heavily on the developer social media publicity circuit.

> Starbucks and ... use it

I have heard of Haskell used in companies mentioned by other comments, but I am surprised, pleasantly, that Starbucks uses Haskell.

Do you have a pointer (job posting, blog post, etc.) to Starbucks using Haskell? It could help me push for using Haskell by my employer, for example.
